Hi everyone!
We've just added a neat new feature: while you are using the Ctrl key to highlight all buildings of the same type as the selected building, changing the operational mode will change it for all buildings of that type simultaneously!
This means you can set ALL Wind Turbines in your colony to Fan Mode simultaneously just by selecting a Wind Turbine and holding Ctrl while you set it to Fan Mode -- or change the modes of all your Water Pumps, Bar & Grills, Zorium Generators, Atmospheric Condensers, etc, or toggle potash usage at all your Farms or Greenhouses, and so on.
You can also use this to set the construction priority of all buildings of the same type as they're being built (Low, Medium, or High).
This also works with repairing and upgrading buildings, and with the associated key shortcuts, too -- simply hold Ctrl to issue the "repair" or "upgrade" command to all buildings of that type in your colony! If you can't afford to repair or upgrade all highlighted buildings, it will repair or upgrade as many as you can afford, starting with the building you selected.
We're hard at work on some huge new features for Content Drop 2, but we wanted to get that new feature and a few other tweaks into your hands ASAP.
Changes in this version:
- The Hovercar Garage force field now has a sound effect
- Tweaks to Hovercar movement so they move at a more consistent velocity
- Building a Space Elevator will now properly grant progress toward the "Megalopolis" achievement
- The water in Serpent Isle now pauses properly when the game is paused; also added more fish
- Increased the Nanite cost of a Space Elevator to 810 (from 740) to better balance out its benefits
- Fixed an issue where in some cases, the Space Elevator would not be properly disabled (red) when you could not afford to build it
- New feature: while you are using the Ctrl key to highlight all buildings of the same type as the selected building, changing the operational mode or issuing a "repair" or "upgrade" command will be applied to all buildings of that type simultaneously (or as many as you can afford).
Thank you for being part of the Aven Colony community, and we're looking forward to getting Content Drop 2 into your hands ASAP!
